1
As I went down for to take a little walk
2
I came upon that Wild Bill Jones
3
He was a walking and a talking by my true lover's side
4
And I bid him to leave her alone
5
He said my age is twenty-one
6
Too old to be controlled
7
I pulled my revolver from my side
8
And I destroyed that poor boy's soul
9
He reeled and he staggered, and he fell to the ground
10
And then he gave one dying moan
11
He wrapped his arms around my little girl's neck
12
Saying honey won't you take me home
13
So put them handcuffs on me boys
14
And lead me to that freight car gate
15
I have no friends or relations there
16
No-one for to go my bail
17
So pass around that old long necked bottle
18
And we'll all go on a spree
19
For today was the last of that Wild Bill Jones
20
And tomorrow will be the last of me
21
They sent me to prison for twenty long years
22
This poor boy longs to be free
23
But Wild Bill Jones and that long-necked bottle
24
Have been the ruin of me
